I saw them do Beethoven's Last Night, with a bit of the stuff from Night Castle, so it was totally different anyway.

Last: Nightwish (Oh me yarm SO GOOOOOOOOOOOOOODD)Next: Probably POD, Three Days Grace and Shinedown. I've seen Three Days Grace before, and it was a lot of fun. Never the other two though.

I'm seriously considering seeing Maiden and Megadeth in Vegas, but it's right after PAX Prime so I don't know if I'll have the energy for it.

Last one was last friday, The Who in Amsterdam. Good spot, 3rd row center, and a great show. However, there were people around us who wanted to sit down for the show, were telling us in a rather aggressive way, and security seemed to be taking their side. Spent about half of the show worrying the drunk/stoned real-estate agent behind me would start throwing punches (he did at one point start shoving my friend who was standing next to me). About halfway through the show, during the 5:15 bass solo, Pete Townshend told us to "stand the f*ck up", so us die-hard fans obliged.

My last one was Serj Tankian and his orchestra, it was really impressive! It was so weird to listen to his new songs outside SOAD, especially this one. My next gig is going to be POD, I'm so excited! I was listening to them since I was a kid and I just can't wait.

Both of these are/were in Sydney.

My friends are playing Sydney next week. At "The Standard"?

Yeah, the Standard is a venue here. What's your friends' band name?

I actually ended up not seeing Neutral Milk Hotel. They were playing the night before an exam, and I figured I should probably have an early night. But I ended up studying until one AM, so that plan fell through.

So my last concert is still Japandroids. Next is the National in January.

Cost me a little over $1k since I had to fly from Alaska to Nashville and road trip with friends. It was either that or go to see Pearl Jam in Katowice, Poland for about the same price; fan club tickets, too. *shrug* Stupid friends, and their peer pressure. Either way, Tool was awesome, but the crowd was absolutely the worst crowd I've ever seen at a show.

Next concert: I can only wonder. No one decent comes to Alaska, and I'm paying off a wedding and have a baby on the way, so I'm not likely to be able to justify a trip to Seattle in the near future either, unless ... now that I think of it, my grandmother deserves to see her great-grand son.

Last concert: Tarja as closing act at MFVF2013. I should check the programs for the places close to me more often.The Effenaar and the 013 have awesome shows.Next show: Probably Epica in 013, but if all else fails I am definitely going to MFVF2014. Or maybe the blueray of Retrospect by Epica, if that counts.
